Excerpt from Music and Light in the Dark-Silence Music and Light in the dark-silence (of whom, I trust, there will be many) cannot fail to realise Mrs. Taylor's wonderful triumph over what must have been a cruel trial, in the loss of both sight and hearing. This little volume shows her un daunted courage and perseverance, and leaves one with an assurance that her outlook on life is one of Christian fortitude and cheerfulness. Although it tells of the terrible blank which such a deprivation as the loss of sight and hearing must necessarily entail, her valiant struggle in adversity, and her real sense of humour, render the book anything but morbid or depressing, and I hope it will receive, what it certainly deserves, a very warm welcome.

Excerpt from Out of the Silence: A Book of Verse In the sound of song and music There's a charm for those who hear, And they look upon me sadly When they see me standing near. And they think that I am lonely As they reckon What I miss, And they seem to be so sorry That I lose this cherished bliss. But I Wish that I could tell them, As I smile and turn away, Of the voices ever singing Through the night and through day, Voices full of sweet reminders Of the days of long ago, And I hear again the echo Of those songs I used to know.

Excerpt from The Faith of a Quaker There arise also the insistent questions which beset all mystics, and which in Quakerism demanded a corporate, instead of an individual, answer. Was the light infallible? Was the claim to it an assumption of spiritual exaltation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Sonnets From the Silence Nor to far-echoing, sonorous flutes belongs The diapason of Life's undertone. Art hath upbuilt her Temple stair on stair, Whose towers touch the very heights of heaven, They gleam as Pleiades - the splendid seven, And resonant Beauty is high mistress there; Yet Silence stands, with brooding, soundless part And breathes the music of the human heart.

(Amadeus). Few singers have touched as many hearts as has Andrea Bocelli. This golden-voiced tenor has sung to sold-out audiences all over the world, and his legions of admirers have included popes, presidents, and monarchs as well as some of the greatest stars of classical and popular music. In The Music of Silence , Bocelli tells his own story in the form of an autobiographical novel, naming his alter ego "Amos Bardi." He writes of a loving family that encouraged his musical gifts from an early age, and of the dedication that led to his professional breakthrough and his meteoric rise to stardom. The first edition of Bocelli's memoir was published in 1999 and focused on the success and difficulties at the beginnings of his astonishing career. This newly revised and updated edition is an even deeper and more intimate analysis of his life, loves, and losses the result of wisdom gained from the increased personal and artistic maturity gained in the subsequent decade of his life. This book will touch and captivate all Bocelli fans and those who admire perseverance in the face of great challenges.

Excerpt from Songs From the Silence: A Book of Prison Verse Met him and he put his poems into my hands. Read ing them, I had a poignant sense of beauty and pathos; the beauty that is song, the pathos of human Fate. I felt like one who finds a flower, dewy and fragrant, beside a dusty road. The wind bloweth where it list eth. There are lyrics in this book, so truly lovely, so unfeignedly simple and sincere, with such an infectious lilt and shine of color, that one's heart melts before them. I mean such things as Unfettered, Rose Petals, Song, Rube Robin, Dust Sanctuary, and others yet, bits of entrancing melody, thrusts into the deeps of living. They constitute the testament of a very gen uiuc poet. They have the unmistakable ring, the lyric cry that makes music in the ear, and goes to the uni ersal heart of man. The voice is so authentic, the vision often so spiritual in its homely, disarming way, that it matters little if there be an occasional stammer in the utterance; I almost think it adds to the charm. And so I wish the book the good luck it deserves, and predict that many will be grateful for this gift. That it comes out of a prison cell, lends a wistful qual ity to its note. But that appeal, save as it begets a sympathetic mood to receive the message, is not to be overstressed. Mr. Glynn's work can stand on its own.

A provocative meditation on the role of silence in Christian tradition by the New York Times bestselling author of Christianity We live in a world dominated by noise. Religion is, for many, a haven from the clamor of everyday life, allowing us to pause for silent contemplation. But as Diarmaid MacCulloch shows, there are many forms of religious silence, from contemplation and prayer to repression and evasion. In his latest work, MacCulloch considers Jesus’s strategic use of silence in his confrontation with Pontius Pilate and traces the impact of the first mystics in Syria on monastic tradition. He discusses the complicated fate of silence in Protestant and evangelical tradition and confronts the more sinister institutional forms of silence. A groundbreaking book by one of our greatest historians, Silence challenges our fundamental views of spirituality and illuminates the deepest mysteries of faith.

Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.
